Hurrah!
Greetings…
Yes indeed I have actually painted something…
It is a Victrix Miniatures Rus…
I must say it’s a real joy to have a paintbrush in my hand and be able to see what I am doing…
:
Personally I think it could be a bit neater… but I would… wouldn’t I…🤣
I am looking forward to getting more done… That Lead/Plastic Alp won’t paint itself…More’s the pity.
All the best Aly
You've obviously got your eyes back and 'in'. Very nice results Aly. Regarding your lead pile, I think a lot of us have a Viking horde waiting to be painted and between you and I, you're one figure ahead.
ReplyDeleteThank you Greg…
DeleteYes the eyes seem to be settling in nicely… I shall still be taking things a bit easy…but steady…for a while.
I think I will be very happy to always be ‘one figure ahead’
All the best. Aly
I take it the operation was a success?
ReplyDeleteLooks perfectly fine to me.
Neil
Thank you Neil..
DeleteIt was indeed.
All the best. Aly
A most splendid return to the brushes Aly.
ReplyDeleteThank you Phil…

You have crossed the Rubicon and you are ready to take up the brush against the unwashed masses of unpainted figures. Hurrah!
ReplyDeleteI have indeed Jonathan…
DeleteWhich reminds me…I have quite a few Romans in the Lead/Plastic Alp…😁
All the best. Aly
Don't really think many others would say 'it could be a bit neater'. Think most would say 'wish I could paint like that.'
ReplyDeleteThank you Rob…

A dynamic looking figure. Good to see you back painting.
ReplyDeleteThank you Peter…

ReplyDeleteThank you Keith…

Congrats on your return to the brush, Aly: the results are superb!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ed.

Very nice Aly...happily (maybe sadly for some) painting figures is one this AI is extremely unlikely to take over.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mark…
DeleteIt is certainly a pastime that requires a hands on engagement…I doubt you could even create a mechanical device that could do it.
All the best. Aly
He looks the business, very nice and good news that you are painting again! A self-painting lead pile, now I like that idea, you would think with all the modern technology about this would be an actual thing!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Donnie…
DeleteI do rather like the idea of the miniatures lining up and colouring each other in…😁
All the best. Aly
Congratulations. It must feel good to be able to paint again. Progress with painting always lifts my spirits. I wish you well in your mountaineering.

Thank you Stephen…
DeleteIt does indeed feel good to be painting again…And I certainly have plenty to do.
All the best. Aly
A splendid return to wielding the brush and splashing on the colours! Hurrah! Now, self painting figures, there's a thought...
ReplyDeleteThank you David…
DeleteYes self painting miniatures would be entertaining… As long as they didn’t get “attitude “ and pick their own colours 😁.
All the best. Aly
Well , he looks splendid! Glad to see you're painting again!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thank you Iain…

You sod. Even recovering from eye surgery you manage to produce better quality minis than me. (Huffs). Good to have you back at the painting table though, everything you put on the blog makes me try that little bit harder.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mark…
DeleteIt is indeed good to be painting again… I shall try not to be too much of a sod 🤣
All the best. Aly
An excellent paint Job Aly.
ReplyDeleteWillz.
Thank you Willz…
DeleteAll the best. Aly
Glad to see you back in the fray! First class result too!
ReplyDeleteThank you Matt…
DeleteAll the best. Aly
I am glad the procedure was so successful. Wonderful first figure with your new sight. Personally I had a bit if adjusting to my new ' field of depth ' but you got it right out of the gate! Congrats, each figure here forward is a win.
ReplyDeleteThank you Joe…
DeleteI am certainly looking forward to getting more toys painted.
All the best. Aly
